Mars climbs the Scorpion, September 21, 2014
Evening
sky on Sunday September 10 looking west as seen from Adelaide at
21:00
(9:00 pm) ACST in South Australia.
Mars is climbing up the Scorpion, heading for a rendezvous with red Antares (click to embiggen).
Stack of 10 x 15 second exposures (Pentax K10, 1600 ASA), stacked in Deep Sky Stacker, then levels adjusted with the GIMP. Comes out a lot more orange than with my Canon point and shoot.
